Even though i'm a fan of BBC News more than Sky News, I have to say Sky does break the news first because whenever there is breaking news they cut whatever they are doing and tell you it and they have in big flashing writing breaking news, they are probably 3 minutes faster than BBC but even 3 minutes counts for alot. Sky also have ...  Read the complete review

Sky News is a fantastic channel and is probably my most-watched channel, and certainly the most reliable News channel out there. I would look to Sky News before i would look to BBC or anything similar. Sky News' coverage of anything from 9/11 to Obama's presidency and inaugaration has been excellent. The range of presenters on board ...  Read the complete review

Let us try and forget the infamous moment when Sky News announced Harold Pinter's death, 2 years early. Sky News is what you make of it. If you want fast, furious, sometimes sensationalist news, with a slice of Americanisation, this is the channel for you.

I do not understand some other peoples ...  Read the complete review

Sky News is a UK based 24 hour news channel straight out of the Rupert Murdoch stable.

Until you want to throw something at the telly. Now, that is ...  Read the complete review

The problem for a rolling news service exists in that on a quiet news day there is little to report. However equally difficult on a day where a significant news event does occur having that major item covered every half hour or so in a new and fresh way. Sky News broadcasts 24 hours a day and I have viewed it at different times of the ...  Read the complete review

I mention this because it is these resources play a part in Sky bringing stories and news ...  Read the complete review
